Enterprises worldwide have a strategic imperative to innovate, but the challenge of course remains the same. Innovate – but manage continuous change and business disruption at the same time. Yet, the path is often fraught with roadblocks and inhibiting costs, such as workplace politics, silos, vastly distributed teams, global travel, competing priorities and departmental agendas.

Implementing meaningful business change or innovation is often stymied by legacy systems, corporate culture, a lack of collaboration and a lack of data and intelligence. Organizations are as slow, hierarchical and political as ever. Worse still, organizations are only tapping a fraction of the potential of their teams, who are now transcending five generations of worker, from Traditionalist to Generation Y. Each of which have completely different working styles, expectations and motivations.

Unlike generalist productivity tools or analog ways of working, ThinkTank uses directed collaboration and solution templates to accelerate the journey from idea to alignment and execution. These templates are contained within a digital forum that is used as the venue for the entire project engagement – called a ‘THINKSPACE’. Consultants and change managers can control anonymity so ThinkTank sessions are truly engaging and trusted. They become routine forums for idea sharing and collaboration.The process is finely tuned to encourage, support and elevate the right number of truly innovative ideas, winnowing them as needed to focus on those with real potential.

Trusted digital forum that removes workplace silos, politics, bias or fear

Fosters powerful co-creation experiences that unlock the collective intelligence of distributed teams and accelerate time-to-value

“ThinkTank has been instrumental in getting candid feedback and innovative ideas from a variety of people at different levels within the

organization. Everyone feels that they are being heard.”

“True leaders want ideas from everywhere and everyone within their organization.

ThinkTank makes that happen.”

“There’s such a deeper sense of ownership and the team walks away with actionable ideas

instead of social noise.”

“It could potentially take up to a week to determine any sort of outcome. With

ThinkTank, we see actionable outcomes within an hour or two.”“

Added features, such as a Productivity Tool Kit enable you to engage the team, gather requirements, vote on them, look at heat maps of opinion and prioritization and make collaborative decisions. The anonymity and parallel input features help to cut through politics, allow rapid input versus sequential, and create an inclusive environment that reduces rework, backtracking and solution rejection due to poor stakeholder buy-in.
